Been numerous posts about this already.
My Droid is faster with Froyo, and the battery lasts just as long as before, if not longer. Doesn't seem like anyone has been able to figure out why people are getting such diametrically opposed results yet.

Yeah, mine isn't and hangs, on many view changes. Also, when I touch an icon on the home screen the yellow highlight stays for a second and the screen transition is slow and blurred.
When in messaging the keyboard takes a second or two to come up, and sending takes a lot longer than before...
The gallery takes a good 5 minutes to display photos...

I just reinstalled the update, and no change.

I figured that about email, but I don't want it constantly working in the background. And no task killer kills it, or rather it comes back on after kill...

Just want to throw this out there for the OP and anyone else having serious problems after loading Froyo.

I had been rooted, overclocked, and ran just about all the custom roms from the major developers (2.1 roms). However, all froyo based roms cause my Droid to freeze and become unresponsive to all input (screen, power button, and soft touch keys), requiring a battery pull to reset.

I always wipe data and cache 3x before installing any rom, and I always start out with zero 3rd party apps, and don't use antivirus or task killer apps. Tried different launchers, etc. Same results every time. I have even left the Droid alone for 30 minutes to let it finish syncing apps and contacts following a rom installation. Even then, I see my Droid spontaneously reboot at about 20 minutes.

The few times I actually did get a froyo rom (FRB01B) running on my Droid well, it doesn't last. As soon as I get an unresponsive screen, it becomes unusable after pulling the battery and rebooting.

It is for this reason that I suspect that there is something wrong (hardware) with my Droid that is preventing it from running froyo. 2.1 roms run fine on it. I have unrooted and gone back to completely stock configuration to await the official Verizon release of FRG22 next week. Then I will accept the update, which I fully expect to make my Droid run like cr@p. Then I will take it to Verizon to get a new/refurbished Droid that will run froyo.

I don't have ne links and while running custom roms for a few weeks now the most stable I found is the FRB01B by pete (which can be found in the bugless forum) runs smooth with the stock kernel that pete has on there. I am OCing at 700 mhz and it runs beautifuly
